A distinction need to be made here, "know each other" actually means
ever having confidence that the public keyblock belongs to that person.
That doesn't imply a very deep relationship except for having met at one
point to exchange information. You don't really attribute anything
except possibly having looked at a governmental issued ID at some point.

But yes, this comes back to security != privacy
